[0031] Reference Figure 1 , a device for detecting the size of a rotor pitch rocker arm according to an embodiment of the first aspect of the present invention, for a foldable coaxial twin-rotor drone, comprising:
[0032] Structural support 100;
[0033] The torque measuring device 200 includes a transmission shaft and a torque detection device 230. The transmission shaft is horizontally arranged and rotatably connected to the structural support 100. The torque detection device 230 is arranged on the structural support 100 and is transmission-connected to one or both ends of the transmission shaft to measure the rolling control torque or pitching control torque of the UAV 400.
[0034] The clamping device 300 is fixedly mounted on the transmission shaft and suspended in the air. A clamping cavity is provided on the clamping device 300 , and the axis of the clamping cavity is perpendicular to the axis of the transmission shaft, and is used to mount the drone 400 to be measured.
[0035] Specifically, the drone 400 is fixed by the clamping cavity of the suspended clamping device 300, and the center of mass of the drone 400 corresponds to the clamping cavity, so that the measured torque is more accurate. After the drone 400 is fixed, the drone 400 is rotated to drive the clamping device 300 to rotate, and the torque is transmitted to the torque measuring device 200 to measure the roll control torque or pitch control torque of the drone 400, so as to determine the roll control torque or pitch control torque of the drone 400 corresponding to the variable pitch rocker arms 500 of different sizes.
[0036] The rolling control torque of the drone 400 refers to the torque required when the drone 400 needs to perform a rolling operation, and the pitch control torque refers to the torque required when the drone 400 needs to perform a pitch operation.
[0037] In addition, because the coaxial twin-rotor UAV has axial symmetry, the roll control torque and pitch control torque of the coaxial twin-rotor UAV are the same. Only one of them needs to be measured to obtain the value of the other, which makes detection convenient.
[0038] In addition, for a foldable coaxial twin-rotor unmanned helicopter, the flapping hinge extension e will be larger to meet the folding function. The existence of the extension e affects the flapping characteristics of the rotor, resulting in a higher flapping frequency, and the flapping response lag angle is significantly smaller than the theoretical value (close to 90°) when the extension e is zero. Existing coaxial twin-rotor drones are usually designed with a lag angle of 90°, which makes the control torque of the drone 400 seriously too small, resulting in poor wind resistance and slow control response of the drone 400. It is necessary to detect the control torque of the drone 400.
[0039] Reference Figure 1In some specific embodiments of the present invention, the torque measuring device 200 includes a first torque transmission shaft 210, a second torque transmission shaft 220 and a torque detection device 230, one end of the first torque transmission shaft 210 is fixedly connected to one side of the clamping device 300, one end of the second torque transmission shaft 220 is fixedly connected to the other side of the clamping device 300, and the axis of the first torque transmission shaft 210, the center of the clamping cavity and the axis of the second torque transmission shaft 220 are located on the same straight line, the other end of the first torque transmission shaft 210 and the other end of the second torque transmission shaft 220 are respectively rotatably connected to the structural support 100, and the torque detection device 230 is transmission-connected to the first torque transmission shaft 210 and / or the second torque transmission shaft 220.
[0040] Specifically, by arranging the axis of the first torque transmission shaft 210, the center of the clamping cavity and the axis of the second torque transmission shaft 220 on the same straight line, and then installing the center of mass of the drone 400 at the center of the clamping cavity, the control torque measured by the drone 400 will be more accurate, thereby improving the detection accuracy.
[0041] In addition, a first bearing support and a second bearing support are coaxially arranged on the structural support 100, the other end of the first torque transmission shaft 210 is rotatably connected to the first bearing support, and the second torque transmission shaft 220 is rotatably connected to the second bearing support.
[0042] Reference Figure 1 In some specific embodiments of the present invention, the torque measuring device 200 also includes a fixing device, which is arranged on the structural support 100, corresponding to the first torque transmission shaft 210 or the second torque transmission shaft 220, and is used to fix the first torque transmission shaft 210 or the second torque transmission shaft 220.
[0043] Specifically, when installing the drone 400 to the clamping cavity, the first torque transmission shaft 210 or the second torque transmission shaft 220 can be fixed by a fixing device first, so that the first torque transmission shaft 210 or the second torque transmission shaft 220 cannot rotate, which is more convenient for the installation of the drone 400. After the installation is completed, the fixing device can be loosened to measure the pitch control torque or roll control torque of the drone 400.
[0044] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, a collection device is further included. The collection device is electrically connected to the torque detection device 230 to collect data measured by the torque detection device 230 .
[0045] Specifically, the data measured by the torque detection device 230 is collected by the collection device, which makes it more convenient to process the collected data and is more convenient to use.
[0046] Reference Figure 1In some specific embodiments of the present invention, the collection device includes a torque collection device 241 and a collection terminal 242 , the torque collection device 241 is electrically connected to the torque detection device 230 , and the collection terminal 242 is electrically connected to the torque collection device 241 .
[0047] Specifically, the torque detection device 230 is collected by setting up a torque acquisition device 241, and the data is then processed through the acquisition terminal 242, and the actual data is compared with the theoretical data, which is more convenient for analysis. In this embodiment, the torque detection device 230 is a torque meter, the torque acquisition device 241 is a torque meter acquisition box, and the acquisition terminal 242 is a torque meter acquisition box control computer.
[0048] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, the clamping device 300 includes a first clamping plate and a second clamping plate, the first clamping plate is fixed to the first torque transmission shaft 210, and the second clamping plate is fixedly connected to the second torque transmission shaft 220, and the first clamping plate and the second clamping plate form a clamping cavity.
[0049] Specifically, by providing the first clamping piece and the second clamping piece to clamp the fuselage of the drone 400, the drone 400 can be better fixed and more convenient to use.
[0050] Reference Figure 1 In some specific embodiments of the present invention, the clamping cavity is consistent with the shape of the fuselage of the drone 400.
[0051] Specifically, by making the shape of the clamping cavity consistent with the fuselage of the drone 400, the clamping cavity can better fit the fuselage of the drone 400, and the drone 400 is not easy to get loose when clamped, and the appearance of the drone 400 is not easily affected.
[0052] The detection method according to the second aspect of the present invention includes the detection device for the rotor pitch rocker arm size according to the first aspect of the present invention, and the specific steps are as follows:
[0053] Step 1, based on the rotor pitch rocker arm size optimization method, obtain the theoretical optimal phase angle of the UAV 400 rotor;
[0054] Step 2, fix the center of mass of the drone 400 in the clamping cavity, and at the beginning of the test, the rotor of the drone 400 rotates and is in a vertical hovering state;
[0055] Step 3, setting the longitudinal cyclic pitch value of the rotor of the drone 400 to a fixed value, and setting the lateral cyclic pitch value to zero, so as to generate a pitch control torque;
[0056] Step 4: Control the rotor of the drone 400 to perform pitch motion, and control the torque measuring device 200 to collect the actual torque magnitude of the drone 400 during pitch motion.
[0057] Specifically, after determining the theoretical optimal phase angle, it is necessary to determine the actual control torque corresponding to this theoretical optimal phase angle. By comparing the actual control torque with the theoretical control torque, the correctness of the theoretical optimal phase angle can be verified, which is more conducive to verifying the dimensional parameters of the rotor pitch changing mechanism, correcting the theoretical calculation results, and designing and optimizing the control rate of the subsequent flight control system.
[0058] Among them, the rotor pitch rocker arm size optimization method specifically refers to:
[0059] Step 11, based on the overhang e of the flapping hinge, obtain the flapping frequency P, Locke number γ, and time constant τ of the rotor. The calculation formula of the flapping frequency P is as follows:
[0060]
[0061] Where P is the flapping frequency ratio, K β is the elastic coefficient of the flapping hinge, e is the extension of the flapping hinge, M β is the swing hinge mass moment, I β is the flapping hinge moment of inertia, and Ω is the rotor speed.
[0062] The calculation formula of Locke number γ is as follows:
[0063]
[0064] Among them, Locke number γ represents the ratio of the aerodynamic force of the blade to the inertial force, ρ is the air density, a is the lift line slope coefficient of the blade airfoil, and c is the average aerodynamic chord length of the blade.
[0065] The time constant τ is calculated as follows:
[0066]
[0067] Among them, Ω is the rotation speed of the rotor and γ is the Lock number.
[0068] Step 22, based on the flapping frequency P, Locke number γ, time constant τ, lateral control input torque angle A 1 and longitudinal control input torque angle B 1 , the taper angle a of the rotor is obtained through the first-order flapping dynamics equations 0 , rear chamfer a 1 and side chamfer b 1 , the specific equation is as follows:
[0069]
[0070] It can be seen from the first-order dynamic flapping equations that the flapping hinge extension e will affect the flapping frequency ratio P, and then affect the flapping motion characteristics, that is, affect the rotor taper angle a 0 , rear chamfer a 1 and side chamfer b 1 size.
[0071] Among them, θ 0 is the total moment angle, g is the gravity acceleration value, Δ is the correction coefficient of the rotor rotation direction, right rotation is 1, left rotation is -1, η c is the dynamic coupling rate, η cc is the control coupling rate, q is the pitch angular velocity, and p is the roll angular velocity.
[0072] Among them, the dynamic coupling rate η c and the control coupling rate η cc Calculated by the following formula:
[0073]
[0074]
[0075] Among them, the lateral control input torque angle A 1 and longitudinal control input torque angle B 1 It refers to the angle value input during the lateral or longitudinal movement of the drone 400 under the control of the operator.
[0076] The taper angle of the rotor 0 It refers to the angle formed by the rotor and the horizontal plane during vertical flight. At this time, the rotor forms a rotor cone with the tip facing downward.
[0077] Rotor rear chamfer a 1 It means that during the forward flight, the rotor cone tilts backward, and the angle of the rotor cone tilting is the rear chamfer angle a. 1 .
[0078] Rotor side chamfer b 1 During sideways flight, the rotor cone tilts to a 90° angle, called the side chamfer angle b. 1 .
[0079] Step 33, based on the taper angle a 0 , rear chamfer a 1 and side chamfer b 1 , through the aerodynamic torque calculation equation, obtain the rotor pitch control torque M w and the rolling control moment L w , the specific equation is as follows:
[0080]
[0081]
[0082] Among them, N b is the number of blades, is the dimensionless quantity of flapping hinge extension, and R is the rotor radius.
[0083] Specifically, in this embodiment, N b =2, from the above formula, we can know that the pitch control moment M w and the rolling control moment L w The calculation formula is relatively complicated. It is not a single variable lateral control input pitch angle A. 1 and the longitudinal control input pitch angle B 1 It is also related to the flapping hinge extension e. For example, when pitch control is required, input A 1 ≠0, B 1 = 0, the pitch control moment M w The value of is not the maximum, and the rolling control torque L w ≠0, that is, pitch and roll are coupled together, wasting part of the torque.
[0084] Therefore, the phase angle θ and the lateral control input pitch angle A need to be 1 , Longitudinal control input pitch angle B 1 Through the following relationship:
[0085]
[0086] This eliminates the coupling between pitch and roll, thereby increasing the control torque of the corresponding channel.
[0087] Step 44: Based on the pitch control moment M w Or rolling control moment L w , obtain the longitudinal periodic pitch value and the lateral periodic pitch value of the rotor;
[0088] Step 55, reversely obtain the phase angle θ of the pitch rocker arm 500 through the longitudinal periodic pitch value and the lateral periodic pitch value, so as to obtain the pitch control moment M corresponding to different phase angles θ of the pitch rocker arm 500 w Or rolling control moment L w .
[0089] In addition, refer to Figure 2 The phase angle θ of the rotor pitch rocker arm 500 refers to the angle formed by the line from the center of the bearing at the end of the pitch rocker arm 500 to the center of the rotor hub 600 and the axis of the rotor pitch hinge 700. The phase angle θ can be changed by changing the size of the rotor pitch rocker arm 500.
[0090] Reference Figure 3For ease of understanding, a specific embodiment is used as an example for exemplary description.
[0091] Setting A 1 ′=fixed value, B 1 = 0, and then by modifying the phase angle θ of the pitch rocker arm 500 and substituting it into the above equation, the corresponding pitch control moment M is calculated. w Or rolling control moment L w , with the rolling control moment L w Take 2 as an example, the specific curve diagram is as follows: Figure 3 Shown
[0092] exist Figure 3 In the figure, the horizontal axis is 90-θ and the vertical axis is the rolling control torque L w As can be seen from the figure, when the phase angle θ is 90°, the horizontal coordinate of the above figure is 0°, and the rolling control torque is L w =2.8N·m; when the phase angle θ is about 34°, the corresponding horizontal coordinate in the above figure is 56°, and the rolling control torque reaches the peak value, which is L w =4.5N·m, and the control torque is 161% of the original. It can be seen that by modifying the phase angle θ, the control torque of the UAV 400 can be significantly improved.
[0093] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, in step 5, Z sets of variable pitch rocker arms 500 are manufactured at intervals of Y° within a range of X° before and after the theoretical optimal phase angle to adjust the phase angle of the rotor of the drone 400, and steps 1 to 3 are repeated to obtain the pitch control torque M corresponding to different phase angles θ of the variable pitch rocker arm 500. w Or rolling control moment L w , to verify the theoretical optimal phase angle.
[0094] A specific embodiment is used as an example for illustration, and a phase angle θ=56°, X=10, Y=4, and Z=6 is taken as an example. That is, 6 sets of variable pitch rocker arms 500 are manufactured at intervals of 4° within a range of plus or minus 10° before and after the theoretical phase angle of 56°, and are installed on the rotor pitch change assembly in sequence. The 6 sets of variable pitch rocker arms 500 are calibrated in sequence on a rotor pitch change rocker arm size detection device according to the detection method.
[0095] The final measured data is shown as follows:
[0096]
[0097] It can be seen from the measured data that the optimal phase is around 56°. Since the left and right errors are not large, this value can be used to design the geometric dimensions of the phase arm.
[0098] This enables the verification of the theoretical phase angle, which will be more conducive to verifying the dimensional parameters of the rotor pitch change mechanism, correcting the theoretical calculation results, and designing and optimizing the control rate of the subsequent flight control system.
[0099] And the size of the variable pitch rocker arm 500 is changed, that is, after the phase angle θ is optimized, it can be calculated from the numerical values in the figure that when it is at the optimal phase angle θ, the control torque of the UAV 400 will be increased to 1.56 times before optimization, which significantly improves the control torque of the UAV 400, making the control response of the UAV 400 faster, the anti-wind disturbance ability stronger, and the flight safer.
[0100] Of course, the present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned embodiments, and those skilled in the art may make equivalent modifications or substitutions without violating the spirit of the present invention, and these equivalent modifications or substitutions are all included in the scope defined by the claims of this application.
